5 weeks left!

Monday- Pretty good day, went by super fast! I had an eventful time on the ferry, which I have plotted out my death in the case of the ferry boat tipping over. Usually when we pass the opening to the Tasman Sea the waves always get a bit rougher. Well our ferry drive likes to go freakishly fast over them, in which we go airborne! Yes, getting air on waves, and then seeing the ferry tip to the right side. I don’t usually get sea-sick, but when the waves are bad and were getting height on them….yuck. I feel like I’m the only one that notices. Every time we get up in there air I panic and start think about my life ending, when other passengers carry along with their conversation, and the crew keeps reading their books. Am I imagining this stuff? Hmm, I guess I feel like the movie Poseidon. Once I got home, Billy and Jenn came up. We didn’t see Jenn all weekend, so it was much needed catch-up time. They didn’t eat, and either did I so we walked down to the edge of the street to this Greek restaurant called, Medusa. We sat out on the patio and since the weather at night has been getting rather cold, they had heated panels along the umbrella, which was perfect. I was stuffed, but everyone had a sweet tooth. We indulged in the dessert platter, which was unreal! Mmm…that definitely put me over the edge, ha. I came back to start watching Gossip Girl again. Oh gosh.
Tuesday- Over slept my usual wake-up time, because I couldn’t seem to stop watching Gossip Girl. Pathetic, I know!!!! Anyways, headed in for a Council Meeting straight away about the Food & Wine Festival we are working on, as well as the Manly Festival of Surfing. Everything went pretty well, but I still feel Meegan stressing:-/. I feel bad, because she works extremely hard as it is, and not to put her best effort forward is hard for her to do. I just hope she’s able to accomplish the things she needs to with my help. After all our meetings for the day, time ran thin so I stayed pretty late at the office. I was working on my life, and job openings in the states. I’m having a hard time thinking I want to come back to work. I’m not really interested in being in the states. I’ve noticed a drastic difference in the business/culture here, and I’m thinking this is a lot more viable than anything else. Some guy friends stated the same thing, and encouraged me to come back and live. After catching the 8 o’clock ferry I got back around 9ish. It was much needed roomie time, thus Mel’s been having a tough week. I feel really bad, and seeing people you care about upset always gets to me….:(. After watching Kardashians’ and Holly’s World it was then back to GG. Great finish to my night.
Wednesday-After I came home from work, I stopped at the grocery store to pick-up some things for dinner, but they didn’t have anything out. I scrambled to get dinner at Subway, in which I bought one foot long and I got one for FREE. Wooo hooo. It was awesome. Once I got back to the flat I stopped in to eat my dinner with Billy and Rebecca. We had a bunch of laughs and then I took Rebecca’s computer to watch more GG. Once I headed up to the room I started to feel like butt, and I had to cancel plans with Mel to go out. I was starting to feel really sick, and I could barely pick me head up because it was pounding. I couldn’t sleep because I kept coughing and what not, so by the time Mel got home we just started chatting some more. It was a good ending to my night
Thursday- Got home from work and went to go eat right away. Mel and I were craving sushi so we went to the sushi restaurant right around the corner. Great meal. After we ate we went back to the flat to get dressed to go out. We met up with the girls at Rocks in this German Pub. Pretty cool, but if your 100. Ha. We had a drink with the group and then walked over to the wine bar for another glass. Billy, Mel and me went to Establishment where the end of the night I wasn’t so established. We got there and got our drinks, and then sat at a cocktail table to talk. We were in mid conversation when a tall, blonde, flicks his hands through his hair like Justin Bieber…oh and con-artist walked over and said “I can’t take it anymore, I’m so bored and you guys looked bored too.” I suppose that’s the new approach to talk to women. We got to talking with him, in which I found out he was a complete moron. His friends proceeded to come over as well. By the way they were so NOT charming. I started talking to Max whom took over the conversation and light of Edward (the blonde, con-artist). Edward walked away pissed, as Max made an innuendo of a Blow Job to him…..I started dying laughing and immediately asked if he was gay. He said no, but I was skeptical. Clearly had too much to drink, but he was so funny. We started talking where he went on to tell me how snobby his grandma is and blah blah blah. He started to make fun of Edward of his Justin Bieber antics, as well as being so broke. Max was definitely a 12 on a 1 to 10 scale of being flamboyant and I was definitely adding fuel to the fire. Ha. They started buying rounds after rounds of champagne and shots, which I definitely paid for by the end of the night. Everything was all fun and games, till I leaned over to Billy and said “ we need to go, go get Mel.” We got our stuff together, and then headed out. Of course with a little bit of truth and bold serum….I worked wonders into breaking up a fight with the guys we just met, and then fetched them all cabs to go home. The security guard thanked me, and then presumed to hit on me. We got a cab ride home, and then I passed out. Woke up to a goat-ee on my face, as well as other drawings from Mel and Billy….grrr. I had over-slept my normal wake-up in which I was a little late to work. Getting to work I felt miserable, and I still felt really drunk. I got a coffee and banana bread hoping it would suffice. NOPE. I was so out of it all day. The day at work seemed to go by pretty quickly, and the last two hours went so slow. During the day I was abrupt by two family calls—one from Mom and Dad and the other from ChelseaJ. It was the highlight of my day. After work I headed home to hopefully taken a nap, but found out DJ was already in the city. SO I had to immediately get ready, and go to dinner. I took him to my favourite restaurant here, which was soo good once again. After dinner we took a cab to the Cross to go out with the girls. DJ was such a trooper. It so happened that the club was Hip Hop &RnB…..so thankful to BBM!!! The night was fun, but I was still struggling from the night before. We headed out around 2 to go home.
Saturday-It was definitely tough getting up, but we all managed to get up after 10ish to head to the beach. We bummed it out on the beach for the day, until DJ and I left to head to Olympic Stadium for the Rugby match. Once we got back into the city, DJ and I departed so we could both get ready. We met back up and then turned right around to head to the stadium. The stadium was unreal, and the game was too much fun. I couldn’t believe where I was, and I wish I hadn’t forgotten my cameraL. Though, the season just started and I think the girls want to go back for a game too!
Sunday- Busy morning, in which I got up early to go to Micky D’s to skype with LA and Max. Miss seeing, talking, and hanging out with them 24/7—it’s weird not having them with me all the time. After skype sessions I went out to eat Breakfast with the girls at Pancakes on the Rocks. After B-fast we decided to go shopping….by decision lol. I got a new swimsuit, which I was scoopin out the first day I got to Sydney and it went down drastically in price. It was the last one:-D! After shopping came back to change, and walk to Jenn’s part of town. I worship her for the mere fact of her walk to us on weekends. I don’t know how she does it…but I admire her for it. We went swimming and did sauna which felt really good. After the sauna we went to eat; I had a delicious seafood risotto. Anything with squid in it I’m happyJ. We made our journey back to our flat, though Billy and I stopped in Hyde Park to take some cool pictures. She was my muse for the night. Once I got back to the flat it was back to Gossip Girl. I finished season too which I fell in love with, and went to bed smiling now that Blair and Chuck are together. Hooray! Hah. During the final episode Mel came home, and rather “happy” lol. I enjoyed her crazy antics and watch her go crazy. Lol. I had a lot of laughsJ.
Monday- Woke up this morning a little later than normal….thank god I woke up when I did, because it would have been the second time I would have overslept. It was hard for me to get up because I was coughing all night. I am definitely coming down with a nasty cold. I’ve felt like poop all day. I drank lots of tea and soup so I am all liquid out for the next year. I’m still at work waiting to go meet Billy and Mel (BBM) at the Quay Oyster Bar to have my first Oyster. I’m excited and I’m starving.
Update next weekJ
